The sunshine fingers In the room,
1 see 1t through the windows stream
Kissing the pillow. where he laid
His head, in many a boyish dream.
But, obi the change since yesterday
The young strong step that so l miss,
The weary miles now stretching on
Between us; and my last fond kiss.
And mine had been a different plan.
A dream of sheltered hooks and bowers,
OF toll and pleasure ham in hand,
OF home and friends and merry hours;
But he had longed to try the world,
Its hopes, its promises, its cares,
To tempt Dame Fortunes tickle smile,
And win her to him
And 30, with spirit bold n brave,
He pressed my hand in mute good-by,
And turned aside, lest should see
The tears that glistened in his eye,
And my poor heart was aching sore,
He might have heard each throb Of pain;
My questioning heart, that yearned to know
If should meet my boy again.
Oh, life is bardl The common lot
And parting wiring the anguisbed heart,
But oh, how differently we'd choose,
Yet see our fondest hopes departi
We take the burden VI would fain
Lay down, and fold our weary hands,
Praying our loss may be his gain,
Trusting to Him who understands.

POSTAL POINTS.
Some Interesting Facts Gathered From the
Wichita Once.

Through the courtesy of Capt. Frank
Smith and his head clerk, Mr. A. O. Golf,
an EAGLE representative was last evening
shown through the postoffice in this city
and given an insight into the workings of
the office under the new system recently
introduced by which the mail matter is
handled.
The system to which particular atten-
ton was called is the invention of A. O..
Golf, head clerk. Mr., Golf as the origina-
tor has applied for a patent and thinks
that it will work revolution in the mat
ter of handling, asserting and delivering
mail His plan must be seen in operation
to be fully appreciated; but briefly stated
it is for the prompt and correct delivery Of
mail which is improperly or incompletely
addressed as to residence.
A directory case containing about 81, 200
names is used in this city and by means OF
this case any person who has received mail
and been for two weeks a resident of the
city can have his mail reach him. AS soon
as mail, be it letter, paper or package is re
ceived reference can almost instantly be
made to the directory case and from that
the destination discovered 1t is then de
uNeTSu 10 tIS CdIticI IL, HONcNCi, llit
person be not found at the place as marked
on the case, and the address be afterwards
properly discovered the changes can b
made and the residence thus remain until
changed again.
The same system is applied as to the as
sorting of dead and advertised letters.
The mistakes that occur connot arise
from the use of the directory case but
must come from the errors or inability o.
employees
This system has worked like a charm III
the Wichita post office. In the past tbs
mistakes arose from the lack of the de
partment to appreciate the size and impor-
lance of Wichita and thus supply the Office
with sufficient force to handle the mail
This has been more or less rcmedied, it j.
sure, but the present improvement is not a
little due to the system that Mr.. Golf, after
considerable work and study, has perfected
and applied

ANOTHER FACTORY AND ANOTHER.

Hardly day passes that some represen-

another does not visit Wichita. Within a

wants of the trade of our territory. Yes
